Starting Windows XP the First Time
Registering Windows XP with Microsoft
In order to ensure that you receive the most benefits from the Windows operating system, it should be registered the first time you use it.
After you receive the Windows Welcome screen, you will be prompted to enter registration information in the following order.
First of all, you will need to read and accept the End User License Agreements (EULAs). After accepting the EULAs, you will be asked if you want to enable the Automatic Updates feature. Acceptance of this feature is recommended because it allows your system to be updated automatically whenever an important change becomes available for your notebook.

IF YOU REJECT THE TERMS OF THE LICENSE AGREEMENT YOU WILL BE ASKED TO REVIEW THE LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR INFORMATION ON RETURNING WINDOWS OR TO SHUT DOWN YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK.
YOU CANNOT USE YOUR LIFEBOOK NOTEBOOK UNTIL YOU HAVE ACCEPTED THE LICENSE AGREEMENT. IF YOU STOP THE PROCESS YOUR NOTEBOOK WILL RETURN TO THE BEGINNING OF THE WINDOWS WELCOME PROCESS, EVEN IF YOU SHUT YOUR NOTEBOOK DOWN AND START IT UP AGAIN.
Several additional windows will appear, prompting you to enter a name and description for your computer, an Administrator password, and a domain name. Read the instructions on the screens carefully and fill in the information as directed.
You will then be automatically connected to the Internet, if you have an appropriate connection available. If an automatic connection is not possible, you will be asked about how you dial out from where you will be using your LifeBook notebook. If you are not connected to a phone line and plan to register at a later time, you may click the Skip button.
Once you are connected to the Internet, you will be asked if you wish to continue with the registration. If you select Yes you will then enter your name and address, and email address if desired. Click Next to complete registration.
